The Main Board of SNSD met in Prijedor two days ago. The party’s president, Milorad Dodik, announced new sessions of the entity’s assembly and citizen rallies ahead of the verdict at the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). According to him, BiH is in disarray, Republika Srpska (RS) will assert its autonomy, and they will seek the abolition of numerous ministries in the Council of Ministers. He announced the possible return of the Army of RS and the adoption of new laws that would ban the implementation of Constitutional Court of BiH decisions in RS.
Welcomed with applause, interrupted by applause, and sent off with applause. The SNSD president, ahead of the verdict, is determined to go all the way – in defense of RS and the Serbian people, but also for himself personally. Because of this, he announced a new two-day Assembly session, accompanied by a rally, calling on citizens to stand in front of the National Assembly of RS (NARS) for two days.
“SNSD believes it is necessary to schedule a session of the NARS on Tuesday afternoon, with the agenda item ‘Defense against attacks on the constitutional order.’ Our intention is not to lead revolutions, but we are calling for a large rally in front of the NARS.”
He also says the Dayton Peace Agreement has been devastated, BiH’s foreign policy has collapsed, and individuals have usurped power. He announced that they will also seek the abolition of ministries in the Council of Ministers of BiH.
“At the level of BiH, the executive authority is represented by the Presidency, while the Council of Ministers is merely an auxiliary body with three ministries. Therefore, abolishing all unconstitutional ministries is the goal we will work toward.”
He also announces a fight for the affirmation and strengthening of RS’s autonomous status within BiH, and if that fails, he will go all the way, making previous conclusions of the NARS into laws.
“This includes the decision to reassess the reform of the Armed Forces of BiH (AFBiH), to organize the Army of RS. That means rejecting the Court and Prosecutor’s Office and banning their work in RS, reaffirming the law prohibiting the implementation of Constitutional Court decisions.”
Dodik concluded that he would go all the way in this political struggle, aware that if his authority collapsed, it would mean the burial of RS, while he would rather participate in the burial of BiH.
